Category: General Reflections
[Per request here are the calls of the world and my interpretation of them from the graduation ceremony.]
World's call:
Be beautiful (i.e. thin, alluring, and flirty).
Be independent (i.e. disregard authority).
Be a risk-taker (i.e. be stupid and careless).
Be adventurous (i.e. don't worry about the consequences)
Be unique (i.e. ignore the good influences in your life)
Be fun (i.e. irresponsible)
Be current (i.e. clothes are for fashion first, then covering, you must know what celebrity just did what, where, with whom, and you need a new cell phone with cooler ringtones)
Be spontaneous (i.e. there is no need for careful planning or striving to achieve a wisely chosen goal)
Be creative (i.e. tradition is bad, avoid it at all costs)
Be generous (i.e. do something nice for someone, it'll make you feel good)
Be aggressive (i.e. feel free to run over anyone who gets in the way of you getting what you want)
Be tolerant (i.e. accept everyone, everything they do, and everything the believe)
Be nice (i.e. your attitude, motivation, or real feelings don't matter as long as you pretend to like others)
Be good (i.e. nothing is immoral, just try not to hurt anyone; unless you just couldn't help it, and in that case it isn't your fault, it's your mom's or your doctor's or your boss', or your medicine, or ADD or . . .)
Be yourself (i.e. make decisions out of purely selfish motivations)
